Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens is a highly regarded wildlife park and botanical garden set in the grounds of a Victorian manor house near Burford, Oxfordshire. The park is home to an extraordinary range of animals including giraffes, lions, rhinos, penguins, meerkats, lemurs, otters, sloths, ostriches, and scarlet ibis, all within beautifully maintained gardens and naturalistic enclosures. A signature Giraffe Walkway allows visitors to come face to face with these gentle giants at eye level, while daily penguin demonstrations in the Walled Garden are a firm family favourite. Keeper-for-a-day programmes, junior keeper experiences, and animal encounters offer deeper engagement with the animals, and live webcams let visitors follow meerkats and penguins online. Comprehensive educational programmes from early years through higher education, along with adoption programmes, make Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens a treasured destination in the heart of the English countryside.
